It gives me immense pleasure to know that the University of South Asia is publishing its prospectus. On this auspicious occasion, I am happy to note that the University has carved out its place not only as a pioneer in higher education but also as a well-reputed and esteemed institution of higher learning within a span of sixteen years. The University offers a platform to youngsters where they are educated, trained and empowered with knowledge, skills and vision to play a constructive and valuable role at personal level in particular and for the society in general. I appreciate that the University has launched a state-ofthe-art Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CIE), which is dedicated to promote innovation and entrepreneurship and is fully equipped with all the ingredients needed to produce successful entrepreneurs. I would like to appreciate the faculty and management of the University for their unflagging commitment to the noble cause of education. I would urge their academia to keep themselves and their students abreast of the latest developments in the fields of education and research. I would advise the students to acquaint themselves with the latest research and academic developments for contributing towards progressive and prosperous Pakistan
Universities play a leading role in the growth and development of a society. The graduates of universities act as agents of progress and advancement. If properly trained in their areas of specialization, along with understanding the art of learning, students can become catalysts of positive change. Studying a few subjects, memorizing some theories and doing limited research is not what we at University of South Asia call “Education”. Here, education has a deeper meaning for us and our students. Here, we believe in a complete transformation of the personality coupled with the right knowledge, skills and vision, charting the path to excellence for our students. At the University of South Asia, we are committed to academic excellence in our classrooms; relevant curricula in our programs; and caring, personal attention to our students. Currently located in Eastern and Western parts of Lahore, we are opening our doors to every student living in Pakistan. We believe the formula for an outstanding university is great students, great faculty and great facilities. You will find them all here at the University of South Asia. Our curriculum is designed to help the students acquire practical knowledge that can be applied in real life situations. Our faculty body is amongst the most qualified from a diverse range of backgrounds. Through our ongoing strategy of recruiting and retaining faculty members of the highest caliber and attracting to the University an increasing number of talented students, we have moved considerably closer to achieving our goal of academic excellence. We offer a challenging intellectual environment with 21 undergraduate degree programs in more than 150 fields of study. The University of South Asia has completed its 16 years of operating as a chartered Institution and thirty-one years of providing high quality education in the private sector. From Engineering to Computer Sciences, Health Sciences, Business Management to Language and Literature, USA offers an academic program for every student. In the end, I hope the challenges we have taken at USA to move to the next level of distinction, and accelerate the pace of our advancement, will enable us to convert Man Power to Mind Power across our nation.
As a University, we see our role in imparting a higher state of knowledge and equipping our students with the mindset and tools of discovery that they need to build meaningful careers and take decisions with confidence. Our prime focus has always been to increase the employability of our students and to raise the University’s prominence in the world. Within our campuses we are dedicated to free and open debate, unimpeded inquiry and discovery, and to act as a community whose academic vitality and capacity to serve others flow from, and are promoted by, our core values- excellence, innovation and creativity, openness and responsibility. Our plans for the future include expanding our University Community, bringing people from the widest array of backgrounds and perspectives together to celebrate and learn from our differences, as excellence cannot be achieved without diversity. We will further incorporate technology in our courses to ensure the highest quality instruction to improve the learning experience of our students. We approach work with the ethos of creating value for students in all activities undertaken in campus, be that curricular or extra-curricular. Our desire is to foster entrepreneurial spirit in our students by guiding them to tackle big issues, seize opportunities, and adapt quickly to changing circumstances. We realize simple coverage of the curriculum alone is not enough, but rather students’ need a strong educational foundation and the necessary skillset to ensure that they stand out in today’s world. We offer continuous professional development to our faculty to ensure that students get most-up-to-date knowledge and information in classes, with an emphasis on project based learning to develop student profiles. That is the direction we are working on.

The University has produced a number of students who are playing very important role in the development of world economies. Our claim to be one of the biggest private sector universities in Pakistan is based on our presence with the purposebuilt and state-of-the-art campuses at Tufail Road (Lahore Cantt) and Raiwand Road. These locations are at the heart of a lively, historic, beautiful city of Lahore. Our campuses with easy access to residential vicinities are the finest and most well equipped academic hubs existing in the city. What makes this University so special? It comes down to people. First, the academics ranging from Engineering to Biotechnology, Fashion and Design to Health Sciences, Business to Architecture, Media Studies and Law to Literature. I know of no other university in private sector in Pakistan of comparable size with as many faculties and vast range of courses as we offer. The best academicians with extensive international exposure and qualification are part of our faculty. Then there are the administrators, technicians and many others who support the whole enterprise with dedicated commitment. And, of course, there are our students – an extraordinary diverse body of people united by exceptional ability, motivation and potential.
